Meldon Dam
Aerated spillway, usually an engineer seeks blackwater flow to reduce scour damage and enact a more precise discharge height relationship, this is spectacular. Producing blackwater flow is remarkedly difficult however as heights over crest vary so much and many dams have one level for excess only, rather than different levels for differing flows.
